You can find contact information for the Cemeteries office at the Ogdensburg Diocese's website (http://www.dioogdensburg.org/). They should be able to supply, possibly in return for a small donation, information from the lot card for the AUSTIN family. Since they are buried in Notre Dame cemetery, that might imply that they were members of Notre Dame parish. There's contact information for the parish on the diocesan website. Contact the parish and find out their policy on making records available for genealogy. The Ogdensburg Public Library has a genealogy collection which may have an obituary. Their website is http://www.nnyln.org/ogdensburg/ The Saint Lawrence County Historical Association has an extensive genealogy collection. More information: http://slcha.org/archives/ There's also a collection of links there; of particular interest would be the Saint Lawrence County GenWeb site and the Saint Lawrence Valley Genealogy Society.
